Vonage Wow. I'd be hot over that. I would be surprised if he calls you back, personally.
Wow. I'd be hot over that. I would be surprised if he calls you back, personally.
Try a different tack - I assume that at some point your just browsing the internet is slow/stops? Your internet connection isn't supposed to do that. Some sites are slow - but places like microsoft or other big places are fast. Also, it should be reasonably close to the advertised speed. Here, I have 8 meg down/ 768k up. If I'm getting 6 or so down and 500 up, that's close enough for me. But... when I was having lots of packet loss, the internet would stop/very slow and the speed tests showed more like 2 meg down, 500 up.
So, my advice is to not mention Vonage - once you mention someone else, they will just blame the third party. (I never mentioned Vonage in my issue, because once I solved the packet loss, I knew that that would solve my Vonage issue). Just call them up and say the internet is slow/stops working at times. The best thing to do is call them when it's not working well - that way, they can see the problem too. Don't take no for an answer - you should have very little packet loss and the speeds should be close to advertised. (I used this site: http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ )
Also - make sure you disconnect any router/other devices and go directly to the modem, you don't want them to be able to blame it on something else. Also - it could be your router or whatever - you never know.
Good luck.
